At first it may look odd that the material in the alt attribute is repeated in the caption
element. The alt attribute is important for situations where the application or user (for the
visually impaired) cannot use or see the image that has been inserted in the text. The alt
attribute is a friendly way of insuring that the encoded text will be understandable by the
widest range of both applications and users.
The index attribute allows the encoder to encode the information necessary to
automatically create an index, for either an online version of this material or a more
traditional back of the book index. The index attribute gives the type of index where this
item will appear and index1 provides the material that will appear in that index. See
index (below) for more information on this element.

12.7. milestone
The milestone element is an empty element, and so is represented as rather
than as a typical start- or end-tag. It is used to mark point events in a text, often involving
the layout of the original text, or special points of access into the electronic text.
For example, when digitizing a manuscript, it may be considered important to record
where the page, column, and line boundaries of the original manuscript fell. This would
be done as shown here:
The Lord said to Eliphaz:
What my servant Job has said about me is true,
but I am angry with you and your two friends for
not telling the truth. So I want you to go
over to
Job and offer seven bulls and seven goats on an
alter as a sacrifice to please me. After this, Job
will pray, and I will agree not to punush you for your foolishness.
Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar obeyed the Lord,
